Thanks for making this available. I'm sure many will find it useful.
But I am not so sure about my case. My need is to parse HTML for use
by a screen scraper. The trouble is, most web pages, including the
ones I am scraping, have ill-formed HTML. How does your library cope
with that? I eventually gave up trying to do this in C++ and used
python instead. It has a package called BeautifulSoup which is
designed specifically to cope with ill-formed HTML.
